routers that are accessible

[Zachary]

Odds are that I do, but just don't know what I'm looking for.  I'd prefer to 
stick with what works well, if that's possible.  Unless, of course, Linux 
will not work with my adapter.
I'm wondering how to get network support for an installation, if this is all 
I have to work with.
Any ideas?
